Hot chick in the rain alert!
Two days ago I started this one, and finished it less than 48 hours later. Of course I didn't sleep in those two days, but who cares?! Hot chick in the rain!
Also, you can totally stare at a hot chick in a low cut dress for hours and not be labeled a pervert if you're an artist. It's a tradeoff for not getting paid anything.
This was a bit of everything, lots of brushed graphite and eraser work for the really white spots. Good ol' #3 lead for the tiny details. And naturally some nubs for the blending.

"Allons-y!"
Ever since finishing the 11th Doctor I thought it'd be cool to do a 10th that's the exact same size (roughly 20" x 30") that I could frame identically, but with a different colored matte to match their respective Tardis blues. This one could probably benefit from some extra time on the suit, but I nearly got black lung from the powdered graphite dust, so I bailed. Also, Jazz pulled me aside and told me I might have a problem because he was pooping pencil lead from all the graphite he'd been dusted with over the course of this one.
Next up...some random chick. In the rain.

"I loved that dog."
Smaller drawing on a paper that I was experimenting with. Not my usual, but nice.
"I could do so much more!"
This one by the numbers:
Square footage of artwork: 6
Number of times I locked up Photoshop on the photomerge? 3
#6 Pencils exhausted: 4
Jars of powdered graphite: .5
Hours to complete: 36 ish?
Well I drew another Doctor. It's ok. This is from his swan song. It appears that I'm also done drawing anything at a remotely reasonable scale. This monster was so big it wouldn't fit on my desk so I had to go to Lowe's for some new hardware and desktop. Two hours and a few bucks later and I've got a desktop capable of accommodating these new ginormous pieces. Allons-y!

Another freakin' Doctor.
Lots of stuff going on here. Brush work for the background and skin tones, heavy lead for the plaid and some white tricks for the sonic screwdriver. Also, this thing is 22" by like, a kilometer.
Minka.
That chick from Friday Night Lights. This is a new style, using powdered graphite and brushes. First time out the gate but I think the results are good. Let's see....
In short...
...be Don Draper.
Some Assembly Required.
Holy crap. Two months, a ten dollar piece of 20" x 30" paper and what do you get? Carpel Tunnel Syndrome!
Ok, so it started out with just me drawing the Hulk and then suddenly "Hey, it'd be cool if Iron Man was there, and the next thing you know you've got the Avengers lineup. Except for Hawkeye and Black Widow because last time I checked their movies had grossed next to nothing and daddy has a Jeep payment to make.
Brought out the big guns on this one. Worked with an 9H pencil (Blackest thing on paper since the liner notes on 50 Cent's Last Album) and BOOM! Look out world, here comes Earth's Mightiest Heros (Umm...but Thor isn't even from Earth. In fact, he seemed rather disgusted with it in the Thor movie when he landed and was like "Oh no...ugh. Earth.", but hey, that's Hollywood Character Arcs for you!)
Now that it's done what's next? Here's a hint: He boozes. He womanizes. He throws money at problems (And people!). Stay tuned...

That chick from Tron.
Yeah, I don't remember her name either. Doesn't matter. She was played by Olivia Wilde. Wow, how can you be that hot and NOT have a name like 'Wilde'? I mean, do you think she needed the extra edge of hotness? I doubt it. She could have been named Ramona Pimpleass and it wouldn't make her any less hot.
Ok, so this one HAS had some obvious 'shopping, but it's ok, it's supposed to be DIGITAL or something, since it's Tron. Actually, all I did was add the background to make the hair pop and then I blurred the hexagons in her armor because it looked cooler that way. Everything else is untouched, just darkened to a nice perfect black.
Almost all of this was with a .3mm and an old fashioned 4H pencil. Oh, and you get two weeks between postings when you have construction going on at work. Whatevsies.

Natalie Portman...preggers.
This picture may or may not have been taken when she was with child before the Oscars in 2011. So if you're wondering why there's not much beyond the head and neck, it's because there's a little bun in the oven and you know, chicks don't look pretty when they're with child so they only shoot from the neck up. That's Hollywood!
Anyway, this one was about 10 hours and a whole lot of fun. Mostly done with the .3mm pencil. This is slightly lightened because it worked better at this scale. Darker version on the other page.

This is what you get when you try a new kind of super slick, tiny grained paper. Its kind of like drawing on glass, so you get very slight pencil strokes that blend close but the picture ends up a tad more artificial looking than others. The blacks don't go on quite as black as you'd want, and the entire thing looks a little more soft.
But here we are, trying new techniques and new materials, seeing what works and what doesn't. By the way, watch State Of Play. It's the best work she's done since that movie where she banged Channing Tatum and forgot about it. Speaking of people that have banged Channing Tatum and forgot about it, I hear the gay bar in Tallahassee is closing this month. So sad.

The Woman. THE Woman.
This is a big one. The original is about 20" x 30" so it's like I had to draw two pictures, not to mention laying in that hellacious background. Also, I did a little touching up with the lighting after I scanned and pieced it together. Tried to bring out their faces against the black and make them pop. ALso, you'lll notice his side of the wall is shadowier than hers. Deep stuff.
Anyway, if you haven't seen the season premier of Sherlock, then you have no idea who this is and why it's so inspiring. And I'm not about to spoil it for you, so track it down, watch it, then come back and see if it works as a picture or not. I hope it does. Don't have anything funny to write. Too exhausted from drawing this monster.

Ladies and gents, your next Catwoman.
I know Anne Hathaway isn't for everyone (sorry gay guys and tiny shellfish (the gay ones), but come one, how can you not dig on this chick? I mean, this was an actual outtake photo of her with no makeup on and hair all messed up and it's still better than most head shots passed around hollywood or IMDB these days.
And now Christopher Nolan has made her Catwoman, (I bet they never even call her that in the movie), and I couldn't be happier. I mean, granted her casting will piss off the fanboys a little bit, but how many tickets were those tiny gay shellfish going to buy anyway?
This picture was done over the course of a night and a half. I wasn't drinking but I sure felt like boozing it up after I drew all the little stitches on her shirt. Not because it took forever and they were tedious, but because she was wearing a shirt in the first place. Only thing better than Anne Hathaway is a topless Anne Hathaway (Re: Brokeback Mountain, Havoc, and The Princess Diaries (Don't judge me.)).
Oh, was that a little too crass? Sure. But I counter it by drawing crazy classy pictures, so there.

Helllllloooooo nurse!
I don't know who this chick is, but I know one thing about her: Girl loves Cheetos. Why else would she be gnawing under her nail like that? Tasty orange goodness.
This one actually turned out ok. (The drawing. Though I guess her parents would be proud too.) Found a high quality pic online and gave it the old college try (Again, the drawing.). Ended up pretty good. I like the lighting in the original so I did my best to replicate it with the smudgy background. Mixed results. Overall size is about 9" x 15".

A Chivette.
Every day I'm hustlin'. Here we are on Monday, another Monday, another picture. This is just a high quality picture I found off of The Chive. One of the daily "Chivettes", though this one tastefully (not thankfully) was fully clothed. I liked the framing and the original photo had a lot of detail which makes for a better drawing (garbage in, garbage out.). However the picture is a little haughty, (not to be confused with a little Hottie...again...clothed.) but hey that's ok, because this chick says she's British. So basically she's supposed to be haughty.
Picture was done in pencil, about six hours total, final piece nearly 16" tall. Extra white space at the top because it levels out the dark at the bottom. Old artists' trick.

The Bradliest of Pitts.
Not sure where the stock photo came from for this one, I just really dug the detail in the photo. It's pretty recent, but I can't place it.
I added the grey in the background. The original was drawn in and broke out the face a little more, but this works best for the digital copy.
Wish I had more interesting stuff to write about this one. Guess Brad Pitt just isn't that interesting.

Cat-Woman
It's the cat-chick from Avatar. Can't think of her name but you know who I'm talking about. (Editor's note: I'd hit that.)
Anyway, I did add a few speckles on her face that couldn't come through with the pencil.
Am I the only one who finds it more than a LITTLE coincidental that on a completely alien planet five light years away they have bows and arrows, spears, 'horses' and feathers/beads in their hair? I seriously kept waiting for them to whip out their Na'vi version of an Iphone (Iclone?) and text "OMG These apes are a-holes r 4 realz. lolz'

Just a madman with a box...
Little sketch-sized picture here. It's only about seven inches tall. I liked the composition of this shot better than the original which had the entire TARDIS and a couple of other people in it. In fact, the original plan was to put them into the drawing, but I abandoned that at the last minute in favor of a trimmer picture of just the Doctor and his box. That's what the show is about anyway.
Little Photoshopping on the 'POLICE' logo at the top. Don't judge me.

James Bond UPDATED SCAN
Editor's Note: Screw you, scanner.
Ah, the man who has more S.T.D.s than Keith Richards. That's right. Daniel Craig has actually died of herpes twice.
Anyway, more shenanigans with the .3mm pencil. Again we have the problem with the scanner, so here's another digital photo of the drawing.
Oh, and I drew everything from the middle of the page to the right-hand side while intoxicated.

Loki-here...
One of two smaller pics that were finished this week. Look, can I just say it since everyone else is thinking it? Loki was right.
Play out what could (would) have happened if not for Loki. Thor, dipshit jock of Asgard would have been made king, and then would have gone foolishly swinging his hammer (dick) in the direction of any realm he wanted, resulting in utter chaos and no telling how many paternity lawsuits.
Now, thanks to this guy, Thor was taught a lesson in how to be humble and make eggs, (and he got to swing his hammer in Natalie Portman's direction, something for which Thor never thanked Loki), his dad's greatest enemy was defeated (something Odin couldn't accomplish in how many centuries...Loki did it in 36 hours) and the Rainbow Bridge was blowed up but good keeping Thor from ever swinging his hammer (dick) into our lives and messing everything up for all the nine realms again.
Thank you, Loki.
Also, I did technicolor the armor and pupils. If you don't like it, that's ok.

Belichickmagnet.
In honor of our beloved Pats making it to the AFC title game, here's the greatest football coach ever. Sure, he's bundled up in this shot, but it was honestly the most expressive photo I could find of the man.
This is smaller than most of the other drawings, coming in around 8" wide by 4" tall, but that's ok. Belichick doesn't need big sheets of paper. Lots of lead here on this one. I did 'shop in the soft background as again, the lead didn't take to the scanner.

Tom Terrific.
Good ol' number twelve. Love this guy. Ice water runs through his veins. Also, he knocked up one hollywood hottie before moving on to an even hotter piece of ass.
Also, he has three Superbowl rings, and should have a fourth, if not for the nine (NINE!) holding penalties that weren't called on that damnable Tyree play.
This piece came out pretty well. Fun factoid: The right hand and forearm are probably the best things I've ever drawn.

Darth Maul
At last, the Sith shall have their revenge! Well, didn't exactly turn out the way they planned. Oh well. Ok, Let me pitch you an alterno-history of what should have happened with this guy:
Instead of getting offed in less time than Tim Tebow would last in the sack he should have somehow escaped from Obi-Wan and Liam Neeson (Seriously, it's bigger deal to get away from Liam Neeson than to kill him. Remember, he has special skills.), and then been the Count Dooku character from the next two. So when the Emperor convinces Anakin to kill Dooku it would have been so much more epic. Maul would have been like "But I was here since the first damn movie!" and stuff. Also, how much better would that Yoda fight from the second movie have been with a double bladed light saber? Just sayin'.
On to the picture. Did this one in less than three and a half hours from start to finish so this was essentially a 'speed chess' type drawing. Came out ok. No Photoshopping beyond the removal of the glare on the pencil lead. I played with the idea of making his face red with pastel, but something about the white on black makes it a little more freaky. Finished size was 11 x 17.

The Bane of my existence.
Two weeks since a new picture. Ok, but this one was worth it, right? It was worth the 27 (TWENTY SEVEN!) hours I spent working on it, right? RIGHT?!
So I added the background in Photoshop, because I liked it and there was no way it would look like that even with my mighty 2mm lead pencil. I don't know how well the scan held the teeny tiny little lines on his breathing filter, but trust me, they're there. So are all the ridges on his cartridges. I know because those were hours 12-17.
Enough whining. It's Bane! He's supposed to inflict pain and suffering, so this totally makes sense. Next time I'll draw someone named "Mr. Happy Gigglesworth" and it'll be super easy.
Fun fact, the piece of paper I started with weighed in at 16 grams. After, 29 pounds*. That's how much lead went into making Bane.
*Numbers approximated

The Doctor, revisited.
Had a nagging nag to redraw this Doctor photo in pencil. (The original charcoal version is at the bottom of this page.)
This picture was way too big (Finished size is close to 18" x 24", most of my others stay delightfully within an 11" x 17" space), had way too much black, and the original didn't have the detail it needed to properly fill out this gigantic page. Oh well. Glad it's done, no more Doctors for a while.
Again no scan on this one. Still trying to figure out how to get what I need out of the scanner. Stay tuned.

Spock, but not really.
***UPDATE***
I got so sick of that crappy scan that I just said "Screwit." and posted a photo of the drawing I took with my Iphone. This is insane. How a cell phone photo taken in crappy lighting can look better than a 600DPI scan I will never know. The original crappy scan is still posted over at humblebrag.
***ORIGINAL POST***
Alright, this is actually a much better picture than the scanned image you're looking at would indicate. I mean it. I actually got so depressed after the scanner couldn't pick up all the detail (At 600DPI!) that I nearly didn't post it. Then I got over my First World Pain and threw it up on here anyways.
So I got a new toy that I broke out on this bad boy, it's a .3mm pencil. You know how small that is? Hypodermic needles are fat compared to this thing. It's like drawing with a diamond pointed pine needle. You can see the stubble rash on his chin in the original.
As for the subject matter, it's Spock.

Voldemort.
So here's the greatest misunderstood character in the history of modern lizard guys since the Gorn. This drawing has been 'shopped a little, only to darken the cloak and hand to a nice solid black. (Protip: Scanners don't like a lot of solid lead. It tends to reflect and look crappy). His eyes came out okay. I almost didn't put the hand and wand in there, but hey, what's a Wizard without a wand? I mean, ask Ron Jeremy about that time he was on meds that lowered his blood pressure.
Voldemort. I want you to think about him from a different point of view for a second. I mean, if he was really so bad, do you think he would have given all his Death Eaters 401k options? He totally did. They didn't mention that part because it 'didn't fit the narrative.'. Also, he really isn't mad all the time, contrary to popular belief. In fact, this picture is him smiling. Seriously. I think it was drawn from a photo that was taken immediately after he opened his birthday gift. It was a scented candle and bubble bath mix from Bellatrix Lestrange. Her way of saying "Come on over, and leave the blood pressure meds at home.".

Oh Captain, my Captain...
Here we have another in an epic line of personal heroes. I mean really, is there really any debate anymore about who the greatest captain was? In fact, Picard is so cool he skips genres. I hereby decree that he is not just the greatest Star Trek Captain, but the greatest captain of all captains (I'm looking at you, Captain Crunch.). I mean, do the other captains have their own song like this?
Ok, on to the drawing itself. You can probably tell the uniform is a little blacker than the rest of the drawing...I did use some charcoal in there. This is a production photo from the third season, circa 1991.
Took about seven hours, give or take a beer.

11th Doctor
GERONIMO!
Ok, so while David Tennant's Doctor is My Doctor, this Matt Smith doc isn't so bad. The drawing itself took about ten hours from start to finish. I took out the Sonic Screwdriver that was originally in the picture. Protip: If you are drawing a shirt, make sure it doesn't have thousands of little curves on it. If you're drawing a jacket, don't do tweed. Tweed jackets suck to draw.
This dude has a killer chin, doesn't he? You could split logs with that bad boy.

You're a cruel man, Davey Jones!
Finished this one Sunday night. He's quite the looker, isn't he? Look, anyone who has his own ship, has removed his heart, has a pet Kraken, plays the organ with something other than his fingers, speaks with a Scottish accent, gives Johnny Depp the what-fer, and is literally MARRIED TO THE SEA is a hero.
I challenge you to do any of the above listed feats. Seriously. I'll wait. Give it a shot.

Hold me closer, tiny dancer.
WTF Is this doing on here? Why'd I draw it? For that we'd have to go back in time, to the year 2002...or 3 maybe. I don't know. Didn't date this one. Sadly, I didn't date the subject matter either (Zing!)
Anyway, this is one I found when I was cleaning out my basement to make room for Jazz's grooming supplies (Seriously, two kinds of conditioner, and a rinsing agent? What a girl.)
So yeah, basically I found this picture on the internet back in the day and drew it. Wish I had a better story. One involving how I knew this chick and made her hold that pose for seventeen hours straight. That would have been cool.

Lofty goal number 4442: Draw a picture of my dog every year as he gets older.
Problems I can foresee:
1. I have to do something with routine.
This pic was drawn from a photo from when he was about five months old. Still has some pink on his right nostril. Also he's sporting his beloved Patriots collar. He's outgrown it now. I have to use the Tyrannosaurus Rex-sized ones they sell at the local tractor supply place.

This pic was drawn from a photo from when he was about five months old. Still has some pink on his right nostril. Also he's sporting his beloved Patriots collar. He's outgrown it now. I have to use the Tyrannosaurus Rex-sized ones they sell at the local tractor supply place.
"Oh and Doctor? You were MY Doctor."
So I just recently discovered this show, Dr. Who. Great program. I hope it sticks around for a while.
